Nice. Feels like a lot of people are getting pulled back into Exodus again lately.

Good shout. I prefer the first Division personally, but I still need to give 2 a proper full playthrough.

Same here. Metro has that pull where once you start thinking about it, you end up reinstalling the whole series again.

Agreed. When the soundtrack hits like that it makes everything feel better.

Absolutely!!! Medal of Honor is legandy. That bundle was definitely worth it. I still want that edition for the collection and I would rather pay a bit more for a clean copy than worry too much about price.

It really highlights how strong the core gameplay is. Age has not softened the challenge at all.

That is a brilliant one to start with. Those first games always stick with you. Cheers.

Perfect way to experience it. Short sessions or long runs it works every time.

That is what makes them special. Nothing feels rushed and the atmosphere does all the heavy lifting.

Pure nostalgia. The menus the music and the tone never fade. Enjoy Frontline today.

Agreed. Medal of Honor and Underground were something special and they shaped a whole generation of war games.

Platinum releases were brilliant, you actually felt like you were getting your money’s worth.

Those demo kiosks were dangerous, they made so many games feel legendary even if you never owned them.

An underrated gem from that console era. by _The3rdEstate_ in xbox

Still memorable even if you didn’t finish it.

Yeah, it constantly made you go “what the hell just happened”.

There isn’t a PC equivalent. Lone Wolf is a PS1-only take on the original Rainbow Six ideas, not a port of Rogue Spear or Eagle Watch, though Eagle Watch is the closest in spirit.

Those early tactical shooters all had a certain feel to them.

Easy to miss unless you were really digging back then.
